Just picked one up - new and still in shrinkwrap. I dusted it before playing. I did not wash it. Vinyl plays very smooth and quiet - no snap, crackle, pop, hiss, or fizz. The mix is very balanced. Mine does not suffer from what others below here have noted as louder in the right channel. The jacket is also not blurry. Approve... and ... UP THE IRONS!

Have a slightly different variant.

I don't know if it's just me because I don't have any point of reference, e.g. the version from the 80s, but this album sounds terrible. Even apart from interference from scratches etc. the sound is very weak. I listened to it once and I don't want to listen to it again.

One of the best sounding pressings in my collection, though the cover material isn't thst great quality

Who mastered these earlier CD pressings? I can't find that information anywhere in the booklet.

40th anniversary this year. Hoping for a Deluxe Edition like notb.
Anybody with more info?

hey guys...someone would like to sell? please let me know!

What a beautiful pressing. Makes the 2015 re-issues sound like they are under water. Exact same run-outs as the first Canadian Harvest pressing. Don’t hesitate to buy this. I am absolutely chuffed with how amazing it sounds.

Really awesome pressing and mastering . Sound is dynamic and clean . Nice obi strip . I have not tried the UK version but this is good for me , recommended . IMO , Piece Of Mind is without doubt one of iron maiden best album together with TNOTB .

I think this pressing is awesome. The record is completely flat without any warping. Just a really good album.
